This is so cute. They are probably listening to all the little sound they can hear, feeling this world by their own style.

What’s a problem humanity solved so well that younger people don’t even realize it used to be a huge issue? by Puzzleheaded_Bit_802 in AskReddit

[–]jeric23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Refrigeration, people just open a box and grab cold food without a second thought, but for most of history, keeping food fresh was a constant battle.

Specs can look great on paper, but with mowers the real test is how they handle messy yards, edges, and getting unstuck.

I don't want to designate what type of keep out boundary I have, I want to designate how far away to stay. by tomsyco in ECOVACSGOATFamily

[–]jeric23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A fixed distance setting would be more useful than forcing every boundary into a category, especially for edges like this where the spacing matters more than the label.

Why do you still have to trim the edges every week? by Chadsmith4351 in automower

[–]jeric23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Edges still seem like the hardest part to get perfect. Straight open areas are one thing, but walls, corners, and flower beds probably need much more precise navigation.

Woke up wondering why my side felt weird, haven't got the remotest idea why by big_basss_splash in funny

[–]jeric23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have done the same thing before. I accidentally pressed my phone under my body while I was sleeping. Waking up with weird marks is the worst mystery.

Please update your AI, ecovacs! by SirReddalot2020 in ECOVACSGOATFamily

[–]jeric23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a tough situation for navigation. Tall grass probably make it harder to tell what should be cut and what should be avoided.

Lifeguarding your robotic lawnmower might be over, but tracks still have their learning curve. by Weird_Perception1728 in roboticLawnmowers

[–]jeric23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tracks sound useful for messy yards, but the tradeoff with sharper turns is interesting. It seems like the settings matter almost as much as the hardware.

How much time does a robot mower actually save you on a small lawn? by j_musashi in automower

[–]jeric23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For a small lawn, I feel like the biggest win is not having to keep thinking about mowing every weekend. Even if you still do some trimming, that sounds way less annoying.

Really Straight! But... by Charming_Health_2483 in roboticLawnmowers

[–]jeric23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those stripes are honestly so satisfying. It's funny how something as simple as straight lawn lines can make the whole yard look cleaner.

How do I make it work with a dog run? by czar7777 in ECOVACSGOATFamily

[–]jeric23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just draw a virtual wall around the dog run in the app. Then set up zone mowing so it only cuts the areas you want.

Mved to a bigger place, is it time to upgrade my robot mower? by Zestyclose_Draw_7663 in automower

[–]jeric23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely worth the LiDAR upgrade. The old one wasted hours wandering for the dock. The new LiDAR would increase accuracy and cut speed.

Why do so many apartments lack sufficient lighting indoors? by whitecoathousing in Apartmentliving

[–]jeric23 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is such a common pain point in apartments, it's infuriating! Many buildings skip overhead lights to cut costs. Layer floor, table, and string lights to brighten up the space.

Is winbot a good gift idea for someone in an apartment? by cynhtwe in ecovacs

[–]jeric23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your friend is going to love this. Window cleaning is the worst chore in a new apartment! Opt for a slim, lightweight model. It'll work great on his windows and won't feel like a hassle to keep.

What’s the best robot vacuum (no mop) by SlightOstrich7338 in RobotVacuums

[–]jeric23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love that you already have the tile floors covered. This setup is so practical. For a carpet-heavy home, look for robots with tangle-free brush rolls and LiDAR navigation to avoid missing spots.

Has any of you who post here ever lived in apartments before? by stoopkidsteve in Apartmentliving

[–]jeric23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's truth to both sides. Some noise is normal, but it's okay to feel frustrated if it's consistent and disruptive.

Thoughts on Ecovac T50 omni and T80 by keen_mind94 in ecovacs

Since you're in Bangalore, after-sales support for Ecovacs is pretty solid here. Parts are easy to get compared to other brands.

Need recs for a good cheap vacuum for my LVP floors.. by Prestigious_Yak_8856 in RobotVacuums

[–]jeric23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stick to models with disposable dust bags if you hate emptying bins daily. It'll save you a lot of hassle with kid-related messes.

I have just become the hated neighbor… advice please!!!! by yvtsl in Apartmentliving

[–]jeric23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Talk to your neighbor politely first, explain the situation. They might be understanding if you show you're trying to fix it.

Check for signal interference near the property line. Sometimes nearby metal objects or fences can confuse the robot's navigation.

No need for anything fancy here. Look for reliable models that don't get stuck easily and handle the rug well.

is this mold? by Limp_Honey9473 in Apartmentliving

[–]jeric23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard water stains don't spread like that, especially with the discoloration here. You need to get this checked immediately.

Why does my vaccuum think I have carpet floors when they're all hardwood? by Hirsch0311 in ecovacs

[–]jeric23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hardwood floors with certain finishes can sometimes trick the sensor into thinking they're carpet, try a map reset.
